Q: re-migrate iPhoto?
Hi folks,
I successfully transferred my iPhotos library on to an external hard-drive when I updated my macbook pro. But when I went to the library - I stupidly opened it from the external hard-drive before copying it over to my new laptop. It now won't open the old library as it's telling me I've already migrated the photos. But I can't access or see them.
How can I manually re-migrate my old library into Photos if it's already been done?
Thanks in advance.
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2009)

This may be helpful to you if you've transferred the library from the external HD to your Mac now:
Follow these steps to designate a System Photo Library:
- Quit Photos.
- Hold down the Option key, then open Photos. One of the photo libraries is already designated as YourLibraryName (System Photo Library).
- Choose the library you want to designate as the System Photo Library.
